I don't always get the sensor working right either…sometimes if it's a leg thing, it's where the band is…too high, it doesn't move enought, too low, it moves too much…

I swear everythime my “trainer” tells me I'm not doing it correctly…

As for the band, tie it shorter…I have had to adjust it a few times to get it right…or I step on it so I have less band…cause I need less for the bicepts, and more for the shoulders…

I think it's fun…I'm amazed at how much it makes me sweat!!

Yes, the sensor is funky. I played tennis yesterday and it wouldn't recognize my left swings and it yells at me sometimes when I'm where I'm suppoed to be.

The resistant band is too loose for lower activites like bent over rows… others it's not too bad on… trust me, it is working, I'm on low intensity and I feel sore the next day!
